MATH 155.05
RM. 415 HW
Tuesday and Friday 11:10-1:00
Tom Lehrer is
a mathematician who wrote and sang satirical songs in the 60's. Here is a link
to Tom Lehrer singing
songs about calculus
The official
text for the course is Essential Calculus by James Stewart, Second Edition
Each problem set is in two parts. First
there are the sets listed below. These problems are
not to be handed in. You should definitely do the first few problems.
Some of the problems on the exams will be modeled on these problems.
The second part is a list of problems that will be administered on by an online
homework program called Lumen. These problems will be computer graded and
count towards 10% of your final grade.
To obtain a Lumen account (which cost $25):
You will need:
Course ID: 58891
Enrollment Key: hunter2022
You should complete the online homework sets
before each of the midterm exams that will test those topics. The last Lumen sets are due 11:00AM the day after the
final. (your Lumen account will
expire near the end of the term, but I will submit the final grades a few days
after the final). DO NOT ASK FOR AN EXTENSION. You must do the
homework problems before they are examined. This should be obvious. If you have
not done the homework before it is due you are not using the homework
effectively.
Be careful how you enter your answers online. The expression 2/3x^3/4 means 2
divided by 3 times x raised to the 3rd power. Everything is then divided by 4. If you wish to enter 2/3
times x raised to the 3/4 power you have to write (2/3) x^(3/4).
Approximately 90 percent of the time when
Lumen does not accept your correct answer the problem is due to incorrect use
of parenthesis.
